Outlaw Dave's Bikes on The Bayou Street Festival is taking over Downtown Houston on April 29 and 30.
Downtown Houston is about to be filled with swaths of motorcycles, bikes, scooters and some death-defying stunts as Bikes on the Bayou Street Festival returns this weekend.
Bikes on The Bayou Street Festival celebrates outdoor activities with live music, food vendors and a stunt show Saturday and Sunday at Eleanor Tinsley Park. The fun begins with a pre-festival concert from 5 p.m. to 2 a.m. Friday at the bar El Big Bad at 419 Travis St. This is the only 21-years-and-older-only event of the festival. It includes performances by The Turnaways and rock group Lucid Illusions.
A stunt performance at Bikes on the Bayou Street Festival will be the Ball O Death, where a dirt biker will go at high speeds inside a round metal cage.
The street festival begins at 11:30 a.m. Saturday with a Yamaha Twin bike stunt show, with additional feats almost every hour of the day with the last one at 8:30 p.m. One of the shows is the Ball O Death, where a dirtbike rider goes high speed in a mesh metal ball. The first Saturday concert will be Dead Man's Hand at 1 p.m. and followed by five other performances until the headliner Powerman 5000 goes on. A bikini contest will take place at 7:30 p.m. and a car show contest will also take place.
Sunday festivities begin at 11 a.m. with a concert from Raoul Duke Invocation and a steel rodeo from freestyle motocross rider Cowboy Kenny. Other concerts and stunt shows will continue throughout the day until the headliner, Los Skarnales, and the last stunt goes on at 5:30 p.m.
"We look forward to bringing the Houston community together to jam to great music, admire the art of wheeled excitement and enjoy an awesome street festival, eating & drinking with the beautiful city skyline as our backdrop," said 'Outlaw' Dave Andrews, radio personality and founder of the festival.
All ages are welcome at this event, outside the Friday concerts, with tickets at $20 per person for the whole weekend. Single-day tickets are not available.
